Bounty hunter ‘Dog’ claims bill kill

Reality TV star "Dog the Bounty Hunter" says he helped kill a proposed law in Idaho regulating bounty hunters because it would have prevented the wearing of badges. Duane Chapman also tells the Post Register in a story on Tuesday that the law would have prevented bounty hunters licensed in other states from pursuing bail jumpers in Idaho unless they also had an enhanced Idaho license to carry a concealed weapon. Bounty hunters would also have to wear special clothes identifying their occupation/Betsy Russell, Eye on Boise. More here.
